i had a pack of 10 reg. barney's farm red diesel and none of them germinated. i like barney's blue cheese and still have 2 beans left. but because of the whole pack duds, i am a hater of barney.
i should have notified the tude as soon as i opened the pack because they looked bad. they need to at least look viable to be kept as a souvenir.

Ive had a hard time with both Greenhouse and Barney's which goes to show that the cup awards are a joke for the most part.
Hard to choose which was the worst...
GHS Bubba kush: certainly not the same as pre98. molds VERY easy. zero "kush" in it, other than landrace. weak potency.
GHS Super Lemon Haze: Looked beautiful, grew ok. Took forever to flower, and tasted like crap. zero potency too. wtf??
Barney's Vanilla Kush: Waste of time... grew very nice in veg. had a strong lavender smell, unusual. tiny tiny buds, hardly even smoke-able.
the funny thing is these were all grown out next to perfectly fine plants. same conditions and all.
Ive also smoked a ton of barney's strains that i didnt grow myself, and they are almost never good. violator, vanilla, red diesel, tangerine d, liberty haze, etc...
only had one keeper from barney's ever: Crimea Blue.
Hard to say if any of the strains i tried were really GHS ones... kings kush sucks. and grape ape is awesome by itself, so i know its not that part that sucked.

i've growm th seeds mk ultra, and that shit is way beyond dank.. it's the only thing i have run by them, but i was impressed as were others..
the worst luck i had with any breeder has been alphakronik.. i got a 10 pack of the bubba loves and white diamonds, and got none of the bl's to germ... gave away the white diamonds with a warning they might not germ, and i think he said he got zero out of his pack too...
i was a bit of an ass with jay from alpha, i'll take my part in that, but i've never had that kind of problems with anyone's gear before..

after reading thru alot of info online and even talking in person it seems Cali Con, Barney's, and Greenhouse all seem to have MAJOR issues. which is rediculous because they are all up high times' butt when it comes to awards.
seems as tho ak-47 has been about the most deserving award winning strain as of lately. i find very few experienced growers complain about Ak-47 or serious seeds. except for the prices...

I heard Attitude had a promo and gave away a bunch of Dinafem 2nd grade haze autos that either didnt germ or didnt auto

i've actually heard that slh is a pretty good strain from a few people, not sure if it's pheno specific and the rest blow or watt, but i'd not take that chance honestly..

imo, i think breeders will often send in overstock for freebies that aren't in grade a shape.. they maybe premy, or cracked, or w/e a breeder thinks isn't worth charging money for but will surely give them away for free..
not sure how true it is, but i have a good feeling it holds some truth to it.

dinafem was another i wasnt happy with. all 3 were freebies and grew fine but i wasnt satified with the quality and flavor overal. all 3 diff. strains.
most of the freebies i have grown have been good. i think some breeders are smart and give away decent genetics to get people to buy a pack. problem is getting a pack like the 1 freebie you grew and liked lol.
my jan. order came with 3 dna fems and 3 reserva privada fems for free. i think that alone was worth the money i spent.

These things were pure crap. And another member on this site had the same experience same promo
Maybe that is what they meant by "2nd grade"

Well at the time no one here or on the internet could explain what "2nd grade" meant
